EFCO Announces First Development and Signage Solution to Create Next-Generation, 3D Casino Slot Machine Games

3D Bare-Eye Takes Casino Gaming and Progressive Digital Displays to the Next Level

San Diego, California – October 3, 2018 - EFCO, a world-class supplier of industrial PC, gaming and EMS solutions, today introduced the industry’s first development and signage solution for creating advanced 3D slot machine games. The company’s 3D Bare-Eye Content Development Kit and Signage Solution allows developers of casino slot machine games and digital signage displays to provide 3D content that can be viewed without special glasses.

3D Bare-Eye is based on the Unity software environment – the defacto standard development toolset among game developers. It is available immediately and will be demonstrated at the Global Gaming Expo (G2E) held in Las Vegas, Nevada, from October 9 – 11, 2018 in booth #2826.

“Until now, casino slot machines have been limited to two-dimensional graphics. 3D Bare-Eye transforms these games and elevates the customer experience to the next level. It’s really a completely new and unique experience and really grabs the player’s attention,” stated Ron Mazza, CEO of EFCOtec Corporation. “For example, instead of simply displaying images of coins on the screen, the coins now appear to be falling out of the slot machine towards the player. And 3D Bare-Eye is not limited to casino gaming. It can also be used for any digital signage or progressive display application.”
